The Story of Stuff
Tips for 'another way' or getting our linear "Extraction - Production - Distribution - Consumption - Disposal" mindset, and manufacturing process out, and putting a greener more renewable one in...
I watched this, it's nothing I personally wasn't already aware of, but it's a cute little video, and overall it just says 'buy less'
I think that's a good idea. With the economy stinking to high heaven, more jobs should be lost in making and selling and made in cleaning up... but for that transition to happen buying less is imperative...

Wow, this is really an universal overview. It is really worth to watch the whole video!
I guess I'll send it to a friend of mine, too. She is teachering English. So I guess, together with this ingenious pictures it will be flashing some brains of her schoolkids!

To be honest, I turned the first one off after she said "extraction = a fancy word for trashing the planet". Maybe I'll watch it later...

Good tips, Chuck!
As you said, it's nothing new but I do prefer the clear message and realistic approach over the usual fear/shame tactics.
For someone just getting started, this is quality information.
